Lego's Mindstorm robotics kit comes with 571 pieces. It's equipped with four sensors: The new Ultrasonic Sensor becomes the "eyes" of the robot, measuring distance and movements as well as detecting objects. The new Sound Sensor is the "ears" of the robot, allowing creations to react to sound commands and patterns, as well as recognize tones. An improved Touch Sensor becomes the "fingers" of the robot, reacting to touch or release. And finally, the improved Light Sensor detects different colors and light intensity.
